Meet Dignity

She stands at the door to your heart knocking, steadily

Not seeking out your head but obsessed with your conscience,

Curious to dominate every burn of your passions,

And seek recognition wherever you register your presences.

 

She seeks to work in your work and gain expression,

She moves with her entire family of Love, Respect and Tolerance      

In all your dealings with those of your kind;

She demands you let her take the lead if you don't mind.

 

"Oh! if only they see how much they need me", she cries,

"Then humanity would not be ruled by these many lies".

Make haste and open the door don't further delay,

She sees your desolation and seeks to brighten your day.

 

She stands at the door to your heart please listen,

This reviving call must not escape your sense of reason,

Redefine and restore human values is her major quest,

Meet Dignity; give her your best and she'l fulfill the rest.

Notes

Seeing how great the hunger for bloodshed, and crimes of all sorts, has dominated man's heart, there is a need to for mankind to redefine and re-commit to the protection of human dignity... Only then can we make this world a better place.
